Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONAdhering to these guidelines may help reduce the risk of injuries resulting from impropermechanical functioning
3、of releasable alpine binding systems. Skiing involves inherent risks and injurycan result from simply falling down, impact with an object, or from many other actions. Many injuriesare unrelated to system function and a properly functioning system cannot protect the skier in allsituations. Compliance
4、 with these guidelines in no way guarantees that injury will be prevented.1.

31、 The definitions and tolerances defined in this practice donot necessarily apply to procedures incorporating an inspectioninterval or schedule, in which such procedures are specified bythe binding manufacturer. This practice is not intended to be amethod for evaluating equipment design.NOTE 2Refer t
32、o Practice F 1064 for definitions and tolerances per-taining to the evaluation of equipment once in use.5. Procedure5.1 Inspections Two types of inspection procedures aredescribed in this practice: (1) procedures to check the systemfor appropriate function, and (2) procedures to check thesystem for
33、appropriate release torque calibration (seeAppendixX4). In all procedures requiring a measured release value, thesystem testing device should meet Specification F 1061 and bechecked by the method described in Annex A1.5.1.1 Functional InspectionsThese inspections shall in-clude inspection of all boo
34、t-to-binding adjustments and clear-ances, appropriate elastic travel (see 6.1), symmetry of tor-sional release, boot-binding compatibility (see 6.3), and otherinspections recommended by the equipment manufacturers(see Appendix X4).5.1.2 Release Torque Value InspectionsThe release torquevalue of the
35、system, as assembled for use, shall be inspectedF1063092with the use of a system testing device (see Annex A1). Adescription of release torque value inspections and tolerances isincluded in this practice (see Section 7 and Appendix X4).5.2 Reference Torque Value SelectionReference torquevalues for r
36、elease torque may be selected using Annex A2 ortables supplied by the binding manufacturer or system testingdevice manufacturer, which are in accordance with PracticeF 939. Reference torque values above the upper limit specifiedby Practice F 939 or above the binding manufacturers recom-mendations sh
37、ould not be used. Values below the lower limit orbelow the binding manufacturers recommendations may beused unless the binding manufacturer recommends againstsuch procedures.6. Functional Inspections6.1 Test for Elastic Travel and RecenteringThe systemshould be exercised to ensure the boot or plate
38、can travel adistance specified by the manufacturer and return freely towithin 2 mm of the original position. This test should be madein all directions of release and in a manner specified by thebinding manufacturer. If no displacement is specified, thendisplacement of 5 mm measured at the toe or hee
39、l (asappropriate) should be used and the test should be performedby any device or method capable of displacing the boot or platethe necessary distance.6.2 Test for Symmetrical ReleaseThe system should betested for twist release in both the clockwise and counterclock-wise directions with a device of
40、the type specified inAnnexA1.6.3 Test of Boot/Binding CompatibilityUsed as a diagnos-tic inspection for determining the compatibility of a boot andbinding used in a system. The boot should be of a shape,composition, construction, and condition acceptable to thebinding manufacturer. Functional inspec
41、tions specified by thebinding manufacturer to determine the compatibility of theboot and binding should be performed. If no functionalinspection procedures are specified by the binding manufac-turer, a functional inspection should be performed to determinethe difference in test results between a cle
42、an, dry boot/bindingsystem and the same system after lubrication of all boot/binding interfaces. This functional inspection should be madein all directions of release specified by the binding manufac-turer, using a device of the type specified in Annex A1 (see5.1).6.3.1 The lubricant used for this t
43、est should be applied in athin film and may be of any type specified by the boot orbinding manufacturer. If unspecified, a liquid detergent or soapor a lubricant of a type normally accepted in the maintenanceof the binding, such as a grease or silicone spray lubricant, maybe used. If a spray lubrica
44、nt is used, ensure that overspray doesnot contaminate other systems.6.3.2 If there is reason to believe a boot/binding interface orsystem has been contaminated, a common dishwashing soap ordetergent solution may be used to help clean the system,provided all surfaces are flushed with clean water afte
45、rwards.7. Release Torque Inspections7.1 Tests for Twist ReleaseA test should be performed todetermine the torque required to release the binding in twist(Mz) about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the boot sole.This test should be performed using a device of the typedescribed in Annex A1 and sh
46、ould be performed in bothclockwise and counterclockwise directions of release. Testresults should be within the appropriate inspection tolerance.Units that exceed the inspection tolerance should be readjustedto test within the inspection tolerance. When an initial visualindicator setting is used (se
47、e Appendix X4), readjustmentshould not be attempted if test result(s) exceed the limit forreadjustment without first taking corrective action as specifiedby the binding manufacturer.7.2 Tests of Forward Lean ReleaseA test should be madeto determine the torque required to release the binding inforwar
48、d lean. This test should be made using a device of thetype described in Annex A1. Test result(s) should be within theinspection tolerance. Units that exceed the inspection toleranceshould be readjusted to within the inspection tolerance. Whenan initial indicator setting is used (see 3.1.6 andAppendi
49、x X4),readjustment should not be attempted if test result(s) exceedthe limit for readjustment without first taking corrective actionas specified by the binding manufacturer (see 3.1.1 and 3.1.7).7.2.1 If no independent means are provided to adjust theforward lean release, this test should be used to ensure the ratioof forward lean to twist release is as specified by the manu-facturer.7.3 Other Release TestsTests of the type in 7.1 and 7.2should be made in any other direction specified by the bindingmanufacturer.8.
